Coupa's New Tariff Planning & Modeling App Safeguards Margins and Minimizes Disruption
Data-backed, strategic supply chain design and planning app enables global customers to swiftly pivot in response to global trade policy shifts and market uncertainty FOSTER CITY, Calif., Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Coupa, the leading AI platform for total spend management, announces its Tariff Impact Planning (TIP) app, part of Coupa's Supply Chain Solutions suite, designed to help businesses navigate global trade and tariff policies and ensure profitability amidst widespread uncertainty. In today's volatile landscape, more than 50% of CEOs identify trade wars as the leading geopolitical risk for 2025. As organizations seek a structured approach to quantify the impacts of tariffs on cost and operations, Coupa's Supply Chain Solutions enable leaders to seamlessly build tariff-optimized supply chains that assess current networks, future implications, and alternate strategies to balance tariff reduction, operational efficiency, and protect bottom-lines. Whether businesses are forced to rethink sourcing, manufacturing, logistics, supply networks – or all the above – Coupa's Tariff Impact Planning app, known as TIP, literally offers insights and tips needed for businesses to respond dynamically to safeguard margins and minimize disruption. 'Since the fall of the Berlin Wall, the world briefly experienced a unique moment without competing global powers. But today, with the U.S. and China wielding economic tools as diplomatic levers—and Europe emerging as a potential third pole—it appears the era of free trade has shifted to a contest over evolving definitions of 'fair trade.' For supply chain leaders, this means recent tariffs aren't a short-term anomaly—they're part of a long-term norm. Hoping for a sudden change to this trend is risky. Instead, leaders need to look to sophisticated automation and technology, like Coupa's Tariff Impact Planning app, to gain the necessary visibility, model complex scenarios, and make data-backed decisions that safeguard margins and minimize disruption,' said Nick Banich, Chief Revenue Officer at Miebach. Key features of the TIP app include: 'A lasting trade war could be a black swan event with seismic impacts to supply chains, the likes of which we haven't seen since the COVID-19 pandemic,' said Dean Bain, SVP and GM, Supply Chain, Coupa. 'As we've seen before, supply chains are extremely fragile, and the potential for severe disruptions create dramatic downstream business challenges for each of our customers. With these new tools Coupa is helping companies create an adaptive strategy that suits their unique business model, protecting margins and maintaining their competitive edge even amid ongoing volatility.' Coupa's supply chain modeling helps businesses navigate value-added activities and duty drawbacks by tracking the movement of goods. Businesses can evaluate the cumulative impact of tariffs across all stages of the supply chain and determine the most effective response for potential costs increases.

UPS Volume Takes A Hit On Tariff-Induced Weakness, Withholds Annual Outlook
United Parcel Service Inc. (NYSE: UPS posted second-quarter results Tuesday that beat revenue expectations but narrowly missed the consensus earnings estimate, as the shipping giant continues to navigate a complex global trade environment. The Atlanta-based logistics giant posted adjusted earnings per share of $1.55, narrowly missing the consensus estimate of $1.57. Revenue was $21.2 billion, beating the expected $20.87 billion. Operating profit for the quarter totaled $1.8 billion, or $1.9 billion on an adjusted basis. The adjusted consolidated operating margin rose to 8.8%, up from 8.2% in the first the U.S. Domestic segment, revenue fell 0.8% year over year to $14.08 billion, driven by lower package volumes. The adjusted operating margin remained steady at 7% compared to last year's quarter. The International segment generated $4.49 billion in revenue, up 2.6% from a year ago, fueled by a 3.9% increase in average daily volume. However, the adjusted operating margin fell to 15.2%, down from 18.9% a year earlier. Supply Chain Solutions revenue dropped 18.3% to $2.65 billion, mainly due to the prior-year divestiture of freight brokerage unit Coyote. Still, the segment's adjusted operating margin improved to 8%, from 7.5% in the second quarter of 2024. For the first half of 2025, UPS reported operating cash flow of $2.67 billion and free cash flow of $742 million. The company reported a 6.1% increase in GAAP cost per piece to $12.18, or $12.12 on an adjusted basis, up 5.6% year over year. U.S. daily volume declined to 16.6 million packages. View more earnings on UPS 'We are making meaningful progress on our strategic initiatives,' said CEO Carol Tomé, praising UPS employees for navigating a 'dynamic and evolving trade environment.' The company is undergoing a multi-year transformation effort to streamline its operations and cost structure. Transformation 2.0, Fit to Serve, and Network Reconfiguration programs include workforce reductions, technology upgrades, and facility closures. UPS expects to save $3.5 billion through these initiatives in 2025, with $400 million to $650 million in related expenses. Key Takeaways From Earnings Call During the earnings conference call, the CEO of UPS highlighted several key factors impacting the company's performance. A significant point of discussion was the China to U.S. trade lane, which UPS is actively monitoring. The CEO noted that a year-over-year drop in average daily volume in this lane was directly attributed to the increased tariffs and the elimination of de minimis exceptions. UPS CFO noted that U.S. trade policy changes during the quarter resulted in a 34.8% decline on the China to U.S. lane in May and June, a figure described as 'higher than we expected.' Furthermore, the CEO reportedly addressed the domestic U.S. market, stating that the U.S. small package market was unfavorably impacted by U.S. consumer sentiment that was near historic lows. This indicates a broader economic headwind affecting consumer spending and, consequently, package delivery volumes within the United States. UPS said that its low-cost Ground Saver product experienced a significant year-over-year volume drop of 23%. This decline was partly attributed to fewer Amazon delivery reductions, suggesting a shift in Amazon's delivery strategies impacting UPS's Ground Saver service. Regarding the ongoing relationship with Amazon, the CFO stated an expectation to accelerate the pace of Amazon volume decline to approximately 30% year-over-year in each of the third and fourth quarters. Looking ahead, the CEO also commented on the upcoming peak season, noting that customers have not yet shared their peak season plans. This delay is likely due to uncertainty over U.S. trade policies. Outlook Due to ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, UPS withheld revenue and profit guidance for 2025. However, the company reaffirmed key financial targets, including $3.5 billion in cost savings from its ongoing network reconfiguration and Efficiency Reimagined initiatives. Capital expenditures remain projected at $3.5 billion, while dividend payments are expected to total $5.5 billion, subject to board approval. Share buybacks of $1 billion have already been completed.

More information can be found at and Forward-Looking Statements This release, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission contain and in the future may contain "forward-looking statements". Statements other than those of current or historical fact, and all statements accompanied by terms such as "will," "believe," "project," "expect," "estimate," "assume," "intend," "anticipate," "target," "plan," and similar terms, are intended to be forward-looking statements. From time to time, we also include written or oral forward-looking statements in other publicly disclosed materials. Forward-looking statements may relate to our intent, belief, forecasts of, or current expectations about our strategic direction, prospects, future results, or future events; they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made and the future, by its very nature, cannot be predicted with certainty. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or anticipated results. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: changes in general economic conditions in the U.S. or internationally, including as a result of changes in the global trade policy and new or increased tariffs; significant competition on a local, regional, national and international basis; changes in our relationships with our significant customers; our ability to attract and retain qualified employees; strikes, work stoppages or slowdowns by our employees; increased or more complex physical or operational security requirements; a significant cybersecurity incident, or increased data protection regulations; our ability to maintain our brand image and corporate reputation; impacts from global climate change; interruptions in or impacts on our business from natural or man-made events or disasters including terrorist attacks, epidemics or pandemics; exposure to changing economic, political, regulatory and social developments in international and emerging markets; our ability to realize the anticipated benefits from acquisitions, dispositions, joint ventures or strategic alliances; the effects of changing prices of energy, including gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, other fuels and interruptions in supplies of these commodities; changes in exchange rates or interest rates; our ability to accurately forecast our future capital investment needs; increases in our expenses or funding obligations relating to employee health, retiree health and/or pension benefits; our ability to manage insurance and claims expenses; changes in business strategy, government regulations or economic or market conditions that may result in impairments of our assets; potential additional U.S. or international tax liabilities; increasingly stringent regulations related to climate change; potential claims or litigation related to labor and employment, personal injury, property damage, business practices, environmental liability and other matters; and other risks discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and subsequently filed reports. You should consider the limitations on, and risks associated with, forward-looking statements and not unduly rely on the accuracy of predictions contained in such forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events, circumstances, changes in expectations, or the occurrence of unanticipated events after the date of those statements, except as required by law. The Company routinely posts important information, including news releases, announcements, materials provided or displayed at analyst or investor conferences, and other statements about its business and results of operations, that may be deemed material to investors on the Company's Investors Relations website at The Company uses its website as a means of disclosing material, nonpublic information and for complying with the Company's disclosure obligations under Regulation FD. Investors should monitor the Company's Investor Relations website in addition to following the Company's press releases, filings with the SEC, public conference calls and webcasts. We do not incorporate the contents of any website into this or any other report we file with the SEC. Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") with certain non-GAAP adjusted financial measures. Management views and evaluates business performance on both a GAAP basis and by excluding costs and benefits associated with these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures. As a result, we believe the presentation of these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures better enables users of our financial information to view and evaluate underlying business performance from the same perspective as management. Non-GAAP adjusted financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP adjusted financial measures do not represent a comprehensive basis of accounting and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures From time to time when presenting forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted financial measures, we are unable to provide quantitative reconciliations to the most closely correlated GAAP measure due to the uncertainty in the timing, amount or nature of any adjustments, which could be material in any period. Expense for Regulatory Matter We supplement our presentation with non-GAAP adjusted financial measures that exclude the impact of an expense to settle a regulatory matter. We do not believe this is a component of our ongoing operations and we do not expect this or similar payments to recur. One-Time Payment for International Regulatory Matter We supplement our presentation with non-GAAP adjusted financial measures that exclude the impact of a payment to settle a previously-disclosed international tax regulatory matter. We do not believe this payment was a component of our ongoing operations and we do not expect this or similar payments to recur. Transformation Strategy Costs We supplement our presentation with non-GAAP adjusted financial measures that exclude the impact of charges related to activities within our transformation strategy. Our transformation strategy activities have spanned several years and are designed to fundamentally change the spans and layers of our organization structure, processes, technologies and the composition of our business portfolio. Our transformation strategy includes initiatives within our Transformation 2.0, Fit to Serve, and Network Reconfiguration and Efficiency Reimagined programs. Various circumstances have precipitated these initiatives, including developments and changes in competitive landscapes, inflationary pressures, consumer behaviors, and other factors including post-COVID normalization and volume diversions attributed to our 2023 labor negotiations. Our transformation strategy has included the following programs and initiatives: Transformation 2.0: We identified opportunities to reduce spans and layers of management, began a review of our business portfolio and identified opportunities to invest in certain technologies, including financial reporting and certain schedule, time and pay systems, to reduce global indirect operating costs, provide better visibility, and reduce reliance on legacy systems and coding languages. Costs associated with Transformation 2.0 have primarily consisted of compensation and benefit costs related to reductions in our workforce and fees paid to third-party consultants. We expect any remaining costs to be incurred during 2025. Fit to Serve: We undertook our Fit to Serve initiative with the intent to right-size our business to create a more efficient operating model that was more responsive to market dynamics through a workforce reduction of approximately 14,000 positions, primarily within management. Fit to Serve is expected to conclude in 2025. Network Reconfiguration and Efficiency Reimagined: Our Network of the Future initiative is intended to enhance the efficiency of our network through automation and operational sort consolidation in our U.S. Domestic network. In connection with our anticipation of lower volumes from our largest customer, we began our Network Reconfiguration, which is an expansion of Network of the Future and will lead to consolidations of our facilities and workforce as well as an end-to-end process redesign. We launched our Efficiency Reimagined initiatives to undertake the end-to-end process redesign effort which will align our organizational processes to the network reconfiguration. We expect to reduce our operational workforce by approximately 20,000 positions during 2025. We closed daily operations at 74 leased and owned buildings by June 30. We continue to review expected changes in volume in our integrated air and ground network to identify additional buildings for closure. We anticipate $3.5 billion of total cost savings will be achieved from Network Reconfiguration and Efficiency Reimagined in 2025. In connection with the Network Reconfiguration and Efficiency Reimagined programs described above, we expect to record between $400 and $650 million in non-GAAP adjusted expense during 2025, related primarily to third-party consulting fees, employee separation benefits, and certain programmatic expenses. We expect the costs associated with these actions may increase should we determine to close additional buildings. In addition, we believe that workforce reductions may require a remeasurement of defined benefit plan benefit obligations and assets during 2025. We are not yet able to estimate the timing or potential impact of such an event. We do not consider the related costs to be ordinary because each program involves separate and distinct activities that may span multiple periods and are not expected to drive incremental revenue, and because the scope of the programs exceeds that of routine, ongoing efforts to enhance profitability. These initiatives are in addition to ordinary, ongoing efforts to enhance business performance. Goodwill and Asset Impairments We supplement our presentation with non-GAAP adjusted financial measures that exclude the impact of goodwill and certain asset impairment charges, including impairments of long-lived assets and equity method investments. We do not consider these charges when evaluating the operating performance of our business units, making decisions to allocate resources or in determining incentive compensation awards. Gains and Losses Related to Divestitures We supplement our presentation with non-GAAP adjusted financial measures that exclude the impact of gains (or losses) related to the divestiture of businesses. We do not consider these transactions to be a component of our ongoing operations, nor when evaluating the operating performance of our business units, making decisions to allocate resources or in determining incentive compensation awards. Reversal of Income Tax Valuation Allowance We previously recorded non-GAAP adjustments for transactions that resulted in capital loss deferred tax assets not expected to be realized. We now expect a portion of these capital losses to be realized in future periods. We supplement our presentation with non-GAAP adjusted financial measures that exclude the impact of subsequent changes in the valuation allowances against these deferred tax assets as we believe such treatment is consistent with how the valuation allowance was initially established. Non-GAAP Adjusted Cost per Piece We evaluate the efficiency of our operations using various metrics, including non-GAAP adjusted cost per piece. Non-GAAP adjusted cost per piece is calculated as non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses in a period divided by total volume for that period. Because non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses exclude costs or charges that we do not consider a part of underlying business performance when monitoring and evaluating the operating performance of our business units, making decisions to allocate resources or in determining incentive compensation awards, we believe this is the appropriate metric on which to base reviews and evaluations of the efficiency of our operational performance. Free Cash Flow We calculate free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, proceeds from disposals of property, plant and equipment, and plus or minus the net changes in other investing activities. We believe free cash flow is an important indicator of how much cash is generated by our ongoing business operations and we use this as a measure of incremental cash available to invest in our business, meet our debt obligations and return cash to shareowners.

First look: Ryder makes more money in second quarter, but revenue growth is minimal
Ryder Systems (NYSE: R) made more money in the second quarter than in the corresponding three months from 2025, but revenue growth was slow. The company announced its earnings Thursday morning. Earnings per share on a GAAP basis were up 11% from a year ago, rising to $3.15/share. Comparable non-GAAP earnings were $3.32, also up 11%. Ryder, in its earnings release, attributed the increase to 'higher contractual earnings and share repurchases.' But total revenue barely budged, down slightly to $1.47 billion from $1.48 billion a year earlier. Operating revenue rose 1% to $1.29 billion. After a few quarters of low used vehicle sales, sales rebounded to 6,200. While that was down from 6,000 a year ago, sequentially it was significantly higher than the prior three quarters, when the sales were 4,700, 4,700 and 5,100, respectively. Pricers from used vehicle sales, both tractors and trucks, were down 17% from the second quarter of 2024. Ryder does not disclose an average price. Ryder's forecast for full 2025 is for revenue growth of 1%. But it also sees GAAP EPS of $12.15-$12.60. After six months, GAAP EPS stood at $5.44. The slow growth in revenue was reflected in two of the operating segments. Fleet Management Solutions, which operates Ryder's flagship rental activities, saw its total revenue drop 1%. Supply Chain Solutions, its contract logistics arm, had an increase of 2%. Dedicated Transportation, which provides dedicated trucking and transportation services, saw its revenue drop 5%. While Fleet Management had a 6% decline in earnings before income taxes, Supply Chain Solutions rose 16%. Dedicated's earnings before income taxes were up 1%.
